Funny, I've been in r'osity for some time now and never noticed it had a writer's forum.
Anyway, this is a little poem I wrote the other daym, thought I'd share it with you people. I have two bad habits, one of them is writing, and the other one is inflicting my damage on people. So I do apologize in advance, he he.

I like free-verse poetry a lot, and is the style I usually write in....

It's called

"Mortals"

The tide of seasons can bring me
stains, marks, and brittle flesh;
while losses behind me
dot my path with sorrows.
My campaign of armies will end in one.

I do not grudge life to the ageless:
Their endless perfection holds no value to me.
Nor do I heed the calls of the envy of years.
For me, the seasons are counted.
My deeds are limited.

The immortals can live forever.
I waste no breath in cursing their name.
To the hymns of angels I am no witness,
I march to the rhythym of the footfalls of death.
The immortals can live, and sing forever.

We mortals can live, and die for God.
